Examiner, USA THE IMPACT OF THE COMPACT 1 The big buzz about small formats E VERYTHING MAKES A COMEBACK. There is an eternal renaissance of essential things. In journalism, design, literature and art. Things tend to simplify themselves. As life in big cities turns more chaotic, technology becomes more accessible with wireless, fast communication available to larger mass- es of the population. For the printed media, this translates into smaller formats, more reader-friendly for users who seek simpler storytelling, quicker messages, and who seem to prefer, as in everything else, the smaller packages. In the case of newspapers, we have had to wait a long time and climb a steep mountain to get to this exciting moment in which more newspapers are look- ing at smaller formats as an option. For many, it is already a reality. Conversion from broadsheet to tabloid has paid off: Readers like it, advertisers get used to it faster than anyone thought, and the “wave” of tabloid conversions extends globally. Even the United States is taking a peek into what some of their news- papers will look like in a format other than the huge broadsheet that has served as the canvas for decades.

    Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy Discussion Paper Series Leading the Way to Better News: The Role of Leadership in a World Where Most of the “Powers That Be” Became the “Powers That Were” By Geoffrey Cowan Shorenstein Center Fellow, Fall 2007 University Professor and Annenberg Family Chair in Communication Leadership, University of Southern California February 15, 2008 #D-44 © 2008 President and Fellows of Harvard College. All rights reserved. Abstract During the past several years, as traditional news operations have faced sharp declines in circulation, advertising, viewership, and audiences, and as they have begun to make a seemingly unrelenting series of cuts in the newsroom budgets, scholars and professionals have been seeking formulas or models designed to reverse the trend. During those same years, many of the major news organizations that dominated the landscape a generation ago, those that David Halberstam called “The Powers That Be,” have lost their leadership role and been absorbed by other companies. This paper argues that while there is good reason to worry about the decline in what might be called “boots-on-the-ground” journalism, there are reasons to be hopeful. While most of those concerned with the topic have urged structural changes in ownership, this paper argues that the key is leadership. To understand the demands on leaders, it is essential to understand which of three motives is most important to the publication’s owners: profits, influence, or personal prestige. Each motive presents distinct challenges and opportunities. Looking at the fate of a number of large media organizations over the past decade, the paper argues that the most important model for success is outstanding leadership that combines a talent for business, entrepreneurship and innovation with a profound commitment to great journalism.

  • Michael Craig-Martin Present Tense
    Michael Craig-Martin Present Tense Exhibition 26 August - 5 November 2016 MICHAEL CRAIG-MARTIN Wir freuen uns ausserordentlich Michael Craig-Martins mit seinen neusten Werken mit einer Einzelausstellung in Zürich zu würdigen und möchten ihm herzlich zu seiner Erhebung in den Ritterstand als Anerkennung für seine „Dienste an die Kunst“ gratulieren. Der britische Künstler Michael Craig-Martin, der bereits im Jahr 2000 von der englischen Königin zum Commander des Britischen Empires (CBE) ernannt wurde, erschien auf der diesjährigen Liste der Ehrungen, die zum Geburtstag der Königin veröffentlich wurde. Diese Anerkennung setzt ein ganz besonderes Highlight in einem sehr ereignisreichen und erfolgreichen Jahr. In den letzten zwölf Monaten war Craig-Martin Thema von zwei grossen, internationalen Einzelausstellungen. Nebst einer Wanderausstellung in den bedeutendsten chinesischen Museumsmetropolen war Craig-Martin 2015 auch in einer grossen Solo-Ausstellung in der Serpentine Gallery in London präsent. Im letzten Jahr erschien zudem Craig-Martins erstes Buch „On Being an Artist“ und er hatte die Ehre als Hauptkoordinator die 2015 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition zu eröffnen. Craig- Martins Arbeit ist derzeit in Gruppenausstellungen in der Tate Britain, Royal Academy und dem Founding Museum in London zu sehen. Eine Begegnung mit den Werken von Michael Craig-Martin ist eine Begegnung mit dem eigenen Alltag der gelebten, von Werbung überhöhten Lebenskultur. Daher auch der vom Künstler gewählte Titel der Ausstellung Present Tense „aktuelle Zeit“. Es liegt eine kühne Raffinesse darin, unscheinbare Utensilien zu Zeitzeugen zu erheben. Spätestens, wenn man im Frühjahr seine grossartige Ausstellung in der Serpentine Gallery in London gesehen hat, kann man sich der Faszination seines Werkes nicht mehr entziehen.

  • Judith Barry: Untitled: (Global Displacement: Nearly 1 in 100 People…) on View: January 17, 2018- June 27, 2018
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Judith Barry: untitled: (Global Displacement: nearly 1 in 100 people…) On View: January 17, 2018- June 27, 2018 Artist rendering on the Anne H. Fitzpatrick Facade BOSTON, MA (Dec. 2017) – For her forthcoming installation on the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum’s Anne H. Fitzpatrick Façade, American born artist Judith Barry explored hundreds of drone images circulating the internet that depict people fleeing their homes and seeking a new life elsewhere. Her installation, untitled: (Global Displacement: nearly 1 in 100 people worldwide are displaced from their homes. Source: http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/10/05/key-facts-about-the-worlds- refugees/), is a collage of asylum seekers from around the world in an inflatable boat and will be on view beginning Jan. 17. “These images shot by drones are poignant reminders of the trust and hope that, even in the most dire circumstances, abiding human qualities remain”, says Barry. “Looking up, these asylum seekers greet the effortlessly hovering drone with a mixture of relief and elation – even though the drone is unmanned and not human, and even though the resulting encounter is no guarantee of a rescue or of entry into another country.” “There are hundreds of these images circulating on-line,” says Pieranna Cavalchini, Curator of Contemporary Art. “The refugee crisis is on-going and shows no sign of abating. For so many of these people, there is still no place that will welcome them. The crisis exists in this country, as well, as we witness the countless natural disasters displacing residents from their homes.” In thinking about a façade project for the Gardner Museum, the artist was struck by its shape.
